I am thrilled to be able to bring you A WandafulThing 12 Days of Christmas for the 4th year in a row. I’m excited as this year the theme of all of my posts will be about thrifted, gifted (diy) and vintage items as Christmas presents.

Today is Day 7 and this gift falls into the “thrifted” and “gifted” category. This gift is for my mother, who is the great grandmother to my daughter’s three children. A beautiful boy who is 2 and a half and a set of twins 4 months old. This gift was actually the one that cost the least amount of money but I am sure it will be the one most treasured, especially for a person who doesn’t really need anything.

I found two very similar photo frames at Goodwill for $2.00 and a small wooden plaque for $0.50. I soaked the top of the plaque with a wet rag and the paper picture peeled right off.

I printed and cut two pictures to fit into the frames and printed, cut and mod podged the third picture onto the little wooden plaque.

I just know Great Nanny Louise is going to love this present. I smiled the whole time I was putting it together. Three adorable faces we all love.

I invite you to come back and see what Day 8 brings.

Thrifted, gifted and vintage gifts are A WandafulThing, unique and one of a kind.

Here is a recap with links to what’s happened so far and links to all the Wandaful Things I created last year (2016).

Today is Day 4 and this gift falls into the “thrifted” category.

I found two large apothecary jars at an Estate Sale this year and knew they would make great gifts. I was attracted to the “Shine A Light” on the front of the jar. One of the jars got some twigs, fake snow and silver balls and the other some fake snow and a candle.

I saw a very similar idea at IKEA this year with twigs and balls in a large clear jar.

I know these will look great in their new homes. I hope the recipients feel the same way. I cannot wait for you to come back and see what Day 5 brings.
